Mozilla and P2PU offer free HTML 5, CSS, JS courses and more
The School of Webcraft, a partnership between Mozilla and Peer 2 Peer University (P2PU), is offering free university level courses on HTML5, CSS and JS - key ingredients for modern web and mobile app development. Classes start January 26, 2011, and last for 6 to 10 weeks. Registration begins January 8, 2011, and suggestions for courses are still being accepted. Will this interesting approach replace paid technical certification programs?
Mozilla and P2PU have teamed up to create the School of Webcraft, a powerful new way to teach and learn web developer skills. School of Webcraft courses are 100% free, globally accessible, and powered entirely by learners and mentors like you. The next School of Webcraft semester starts January 26, 2010 -- and we need *your* course ideas to make it a success. Course organisers volunteer to lead a group of peers through 6 to 10 weeks of online classes, with "hands on" project-based learning that's fun, practical and focused on open standards. You can use existing openly licensed course materials like the WaSP Interact Curriculum, or frame your course around a series of questions and challenges your learning group works through together. Course organisers receive support in peer-learning facilitation and course design from P2PU and Mozilla. So don't be shy --suggest your January course idea now!
